In terms of my research, using the new data that was provided to me by my research advisor, I was able to update my data to 2010 and get a better picture of what is happening on Engabreen. With my finalized data I was able to complete my chart and send it in to be printed. I did run into some difficulties this weekend as I was putting it together. As I saved it, the poster reformatted so I had to go back and fix it, however I was able to get it done in time and get it sent in to be printed. Today, I had my final exam and ended the school year. I took my oral exam in my core course. Luckily I got a question I was very well prepared for. After my oral exam, I went to the DIS showcase, and presented on my research. The poster board came out nicely, however, I realize it has a bit too much text on it. In the future I will put less text on my poster boards and focus more on my charts and other pictures. It makes more people interested in what your poster has to say.
